This is an important science — the ability to remain silent. To be silent correctly means to accumulate energy, without which it is impossible to exist.
“When I worked at a construction site, my foreman, a cool Ukrainian lad Oleg, taught me the main thing: not to paint the walls and not to drive with a spatula — he taught me to be silent. For a long time I absorbed this science — silence. But when I realized, I felt much more human than before. To be silent correctly is to be able to accumulate energy, without which it is impossible to exist. 15 years have passed, and what was my surprise when in one beautiful Buddhist datsan I heard the instruction: «Be silent about the main thing.» This is such a wonderful connection between two people — a meticulously arranging his life, a working guy and a minister of a religion that rejects the material.
